The story of Ahsoka’s complex decision to leave the Jedi Order is told in season 5 of the Star Wars: The Clone Wars animated series. Her departure from the Jedi Order was driven by a series of events. She faced false accusations of bombing the Jedi Temple, leading to her arrest and trial. This ordeal revealed a lack of trust and support from some Jedi, including her mentor, Anakin Skywalker, which left her feeling betrayed.

Ahsoka’s doubts about the Jedi Order’s practices had been growing, and the trial pushed her to reevaluate her place within it. Ultimately, her innocence was proven when Barriss Offee, the true culprit, was exposed. Despite the opportunity to return to the Order, Ahsoka chose to leave behind the life she had known. Her departure marked a significant turning point in her character’s journey as she sought her own path and independence from the Jedi Order.

When did Ahsoka leave the Jedi Order?

Ahsoka Tano left the Jedi Order in 19 BBY.

In Star Wars, BBY stands for Before the Battle of Yavin, the key point featured in Star Wars: A New Hope. Ahsoka’s departure occurred in the story arc known as the Ahsoka’s Trial arc. Specifically, she left the Jedi Order in season 5 episode 20, a.k.a. “The Wrong Jedi.” Even though Ahsoka wasn’t officially a Jedi anymore, she always took a stand against the Dark Side, and, in later years, she actively opposed the Empire.

Ahsoka is currently streaming on Disney Plus. New episodes premiere on Tuesdays.
